Palworld has been one of the biggest, best, and most successful games of 2024 so far, and its popularity has shot through the metaphorical roof once more thanks to the release of the Sakurajima update. Pocketpair has released a new patch, and this update has fixed a bug but a huge issue still remains in Palworld.

If you’re a fan of Palworld, open-world survival games, and you play on PC, make sure to be aware of the release date and time for the free-to-play Once Human. As for Pocketpair’s own open-world survival game, the Sakurajima update has seen an increase of 868% players, and this magnificent update has added so many great new features such as PvP Arena and Meteorite events.

There have been a few bugs since Sakurajima’s release, but issues have been ironed out through the roll out of new updates. A fresh patch has been released to fix more bugs, but fans are saying there still remains a big issue for Xbox players.

Palworld Xbox achievements bug still remains

Pocketpair has just released Palworld update v0.3.3. This patch achieves the following:

  • Fixed a bug that caused save data to become unreasonably large
  • Other minor bugs fixed

It’s not a massive update with a long list of patch notes, but fixes are always appreciated. Unfortunately, reacting to the patch notes on Reddit, players have reported that the Xbox achievements bug is still present.

Since the launch of Sakurajima, there have been numerous Reddit threads posted saying Xbox achievements are bugged. Unfortunately, this bug hasn’t been fixed judging by the reaction to the patch notes on Reddit as well as Twitter.

In the Twitter replies, people are also claiming that the game continues to crash too frequently on Xbox. There are complaints such as dungeons constantly crashing on Xbox, along with cries that the official Xbox servers need to be fixed.

Hopefully these matters are addressed in the very near future. Looking at the replies, there are no complaints about the game on PC, so hopefully there are no issues at all on Steam.

For more Palworld, here is the best location for farming chests, and here is how to perform an easy XP glitch.
